Cultural Environment?

What do you think it means? Do you know what "cultural" means? And what "environment" means?

Your question is rather like asking what economy means. There is no one who lives outside of an economy, and explaining what the implications of that are, even in a primitive society, is an enormous task. There is no one who lives outside a cultural environment, and the implications are possibly even more vast than the implications of economies.

i have an understanding of what it means but im looking for the exact definition of it, thats all.

as i understand it, it is the 'environment' which is shaped by the culture which i live in. what environment resulting from the traditions, rituals, norms of a culture. is that right? still, where can i find an elaboration on it? ive been searching but only found about culture and the broad meaning of it

Hows this sound. I am not sure it covers environment as well as I would like.

Cultural environment is the term used to encompass all the meanings (values) that a place may have to people, beyond its utilitarian value. Commonly it refers to aesthetic, historical, scientific or social value for past or present generations.

I agree with the broad definitions and that it is almost impossible to define in a few senntences.

Getting down to a more intimate evnironment, there are the families who want to provide a culteral environment for their children. That's when it gets more specific. Classical music, a majoy classical prose and poetry, the study of art and science.

All this is typical for a Europe and the Americas--typical western cultures. I'm sure it takes place in the Near East and Asia, reflecting their own definitions of culture.

A very simplified view, but one which incorporates the ways families veiw culture.

Another version.

Cultural environment - an environment which has developed as a result of human economic and life activity and retains vestiges of such activity (material articles, cultural values and spiritual values).

To me, a cultural environment is the social contract based on the ethos of the family, tribe, community, state, country, spiritual beliefs.

For the fun of it I translated cultural environment into Swedish. I came up with a couple of things. Words or expressions often do have another meaning in a foreign language.
Book cafe :Enjoy your coffee in a cultural environment.
The house is situated in a cultural environment. In this case it meant it is in an unspoiled forrest.
A school tried to develope a cultural environment for the students.
It also came up in connection with food in other countries.

I think it is first of all our language, our traditions, the arts and many other things which shape us during our life.

The cultural environment is made up of institutions and other forces that affect society's values, perceptions, preferences and behaviours. People grow up in a particular society that shapes their basic beliefs and values. They absorb a world view that defines their relationships to themselves and others.

Except in a few instances, I don't see much advantage to using the term "cultural environment" over simply "culture."

When being paid by the word, or when required to submit a certain number of them in an assignment?

very interesting definitions. They make the term more clearer and accurate for me. But when speaking of the CAUSES of a cultural environment, what kind of CAUSES might it have? can we say globalization is one cause? religion? family enforcement? school?

Dagmarka is the one to ask, This is right up her alley.

Explaining where culture comes from is an ambitious project indeed. Those things you mentioned can just as easily be called symptoms as causes.

hey
cultural environment means your surroudings in terms of cultural geography. Basically to put this in understandable terms, a cultural environment is your surroundings in a basis of religion, mostly, it's people, food, medicine, all that stuff. So if you want to classify the cultural environment of say, Africa, you would have to research the religion in Africa, and things like that.
Another role of this is physical geography, which is greatly in relation to cultural geography, or cultural environment. Physical geography is the landscape in a general way of putting it. These two relate due to migration, the culture of the people in what places, and what they eat (cultural) due to where they are (physical)
